Importance. Of In. Parampe Business.

Importance OF the Paraftne Business.
Said a practical reiiner Of oil while re-
ferring to the importance the parafine
business has reached: Every persoIi
who sinks his or her teeth into chewing
gum nowadays chews parafine. Every
delicate caramel or other CONNECTION sold
in the candy stores contains the wax,
and the paper it is wrapped in is saturated
with il. For the insulation of electric
wires paraffine wax has taken the place
Of everything else, and as the electric
Lighting system increases in extent the
demand for this wax must necessarily
become proportionately greater. 1t is
the only wax that will defy the ection Of
sulphuric and other acids, and it cannot
be adulterated for that reason. II has
displaced all other wax in the m~anufact-
ure of candles. The paper manufacture
ers have found it an indispensable article
in their business, and all waxed papers
are now coated with refined paraffine.
Fine cutlery and hardware cannot rust
when wrapped in paper waxed with par.
affine. Brewers find il invaluable for
the coating of the inside Of barrels, keep
ing them absolutely sweet and clean. II
has taken the place Of French WAX in
the manufacture Of wax flowers. Il is a
perfectly pure hydro-carbon, without
taste or smell, Notwithstanding that it is
made from the worst smelling tar imag-
Unable. 1t defes the strongest dissolv-
ants of all kinds, and is yielding more
profit 10 those who handle it in all
branches than any other substance Of

A TIP IN WALL STREET.

Idiot Playing with Lightning.
Five years ago l had a tip on Memphis
and Charleston. 1t came from the exper-
fenced financial editor Of q daily news
paper. We had worked and chummed
together from boyhood. Brothers could
not have thought more Of each other.
One afternoon l received u letter from
him urging me to raise $1,000 and buy
Memphis and Charleston railroad stock
for a rise. The money was to serve AZ a
margin. lie assured mo that he had in

The stock is now selling at AZ. When
the news about the Englishmen crops out
it will go up among the sos. It's the
only sure chance | ever had in my life.
It's just Ike picking up money"
On the Suggestion that it was barely
possible that he might be mistaken with

was indebted 10 him for many a news

down like a corkscrew. Within two

Their Favorits Instruments-Apt Pupils
In M~uslo-singing 1t Concerts.
In the days Of yore, long ere the hills
Of England were tunneled, its rivers
crossed, or its valleys were invaded to
make way for railway trains, it was
sweet to listen to the mild music. which.
emanating from some Gypsy camp in q
secluded dell, mingled with the rich notes
Of the nightingale and other birds Of
song, Just as the sun, on his vcrmilion
car, sank below the horizon in tho dis
tant west. Although inroads have been
made on the haunts Of the gypsy tribes,
and their music Is not heard SO often now
as formerly, the old love of it still fingers
in the tents and lives in the hearts of this
singular people. Their home life is now
and then e~nlivened by music and dane
ing, especially when the women have had
''good LUCK" and the men have been
successful in their speculations.
It is then they indulge, more than they
usually do, both in eating and drinking.
A few of fortunes smiles will make
them so light hearted, and they become
81 merry, that a tune IN the violin is
proposed, TO which all that are able and
SO disposed dance with great hilarity,
especially TO that known as THE White
Cockade." Many of the men dance well.
and the women and girls generally move
lightly and elegantly, and all of them
seem 10 enjoy the pastime. The favorite
instruments Of the Gypsies are the harp,
fiddle, tambourine and tin whistle. Such
apt pupils in music are many Of them,
that il they had proper facilities and
efficient tutors they would be no disgrace
whatever either to the most eminent COM
.posers or to the most accomplished musi-
clans.
In different parts of Europe, particu-
larry in Russia and Hungary, many
Gypsies have become very popular AZ
singers in cathedrals and churches, and
have often been employed to sing before
princes and fashionable assemblies, both
private and public. In Spain some of the
Gitanos are theatrical performers, and
cases are not i%nfrequent in which they
have attained great efficiency and popu-
larity. In Hungary a writer relates Of
knowing several Gypsy women who were
popular as public singers, and one in
particular, whose voice was of such re-
markalle sweetness that she wa almost
constantly engaged in singing at concerts
given in the private mansions Of the rich
and noble for many miles around, and
for which she was always very muniii-

The hotels of New York are its history.
Time was when the Aston house was 30

obstetrics Of those days took their names
from home subjects, the old Clinton,
where the pioneer Of the Leland family
made a beginning Of the hotel business in
some humble capacity, was named after
the governor who planned 1.-THE big

times WAS named after another chief
magistrate Of the Empire state. French's,
Iovejoy's, the Brandreth, the Gilsey, the
Coleman, the Sturtcvant and the Everett
were and are perpetuations Of ind.
viduals. Then canc topical or local
designations. such as the New York, the
Union Square and the Fifth Avenue.

city's patron saint; the Metropolitan
